Are any of them for robots.txt? Just curious.
There have been rumors of fake Googlebot spiders for awhile.
I've never investigated them, so I don't know the reality of them.
Just something to consider.
And there will probably be more fake Googlebot ids since there's a
few articles circulating about the net showing how you can get inside
paid sites by pretending to be Google.
This blog entry discusses the 'official' way to verify if the system
claiming to be Googlebot is indeed Google:
